If I was forced to shorten that zoo of stocks to a sufficiently diversified portfolio (after 12 stocks, the diversification benefits start to decay pretty quickly, the valuation theory tell us) representing what I think represents the best combination, it would look something like this:
To my way of thinking - without it constituting, or purporting to constitute - investment advice, that kind of portfolio offers an appropriate balance of Risk and Return. Of course, like any selection of stocks, not all of those stocks are going to do what one might hope; 2 stocks might more than double, 4 might go up by 50%, 4 by just 25% , and 2 might fall by 10-20% and 1 might be a disaster and fall by 50%.
Pretty close with your guesstimate about what could happen with a portfolio of this nature.
